ROI Capital Announces Special Non-Cash Distribution for Unitholders of ROI Canadian Mortgage Income Fund, ROI Canadian Real Estate Fund and ROI Canadian High Income Mortgage Fund

TORONTO, June 25, 2014 /CNW/ - Return On Innovation Advisors Ltd. ("ROI Capital"), the manager of ROI Canadian Mortgage Income Fund (TSX: RIL.UN), ROI Canadian Real Estate Fund (TSX: RIR.UN) and ROI Canadian High Income Mortgage Fund (TSX: RIH.UN) (each a "Listed Fund" and, collectively, the "ListedFunds"), announced today that in connection with the proposed reorganization of the Listed Funds, a special non-cash distribution will be paid on July 4, 2014 to unitholders of record of the Listed Funds at the close of trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") on July 4, 2014 by the issuance of additional units of the applicable Listed Fund.

The special non-cash distribution represents the net income of each Listed Fund for its current taxation year to the extent it exceeds the aggregate of distributions previously made by such Listed Fund during the current taxation year. The special non-cash distribution arises from the maturing or terminating of the forward agreements of the Listed Funds and is expected to consist of capital gains which are generally subject to tax in the hands of taxable unitholders.

The forward agreement for RIL.UN matured in May 2013 and such Listed Fund has since entered into short term forward agreements. Unitholders of RIL.UN are expected to receive approximately $0.06 per unit.

The forward agreement for RIR.UN matured in February 2014 and such Listed Fund has since entered into short term forward agreements. Unitholders of RIR.UN are expected to receive approximately $2.02 per unit.

The forward agreement for RIH.UN has been terminated in advance of its maturity date in connection with the proposed reorganization of the Listed Funds. Unitholders of RIH.UN are expected to receive approximately $1.40 per unit.

The units of each Listed Fund that are issued will be consolidated immediately with all other units of such Listed Fund outstanding, so that thereafter, in most cases, a unitholder of each Listed Fund will hold the same number of units as were held before the issue of such units. The additional units would be issued at a value equal to the net asset value per unit on July 3, 2014 being the last trading day on the TSX before the payment date of the distribution. A non-resident unitholder of the Listed Funds may have fewer units after the consolidation by reason of withholding tax requirements in respect of the distribution to be satisfied by the issue of units.

As previously announced, the proposed reorganization includes the assignment of the management agreements from ROI Capital to Dream Asset Management Corporation along with the indirect transfer of approximately $730 million in assets collectively from the Listed Funds, the underlying reference funds and ROI Institutional Private Placement Fund to Dream Hard Asset Alternatives Trust.
